Comparison of the analgesic efficacy of spray and tablet flurbiprofen for pain after soft tissue surgery.

The aim of this randomized clinical study was to assess the comparative efficacy of flurbiprofen in tablet and spray formulations for postoperative pain management in oral soft tissue wounds undergoing primary closure while investigating the feasibility of achieving optimal analgesia with reduced dosage and risk. Forty patients who underwent epulis fissuratum and frenulum excision for pre-prosthetic surgery were randomly assigned to receive either tablet or spray forms of flurbiprofen. The lesion dimensions were measured preoperatively, followed by excision and primary closure.

Treatment of aphthous ulcers with photodynamic therapy: A randomized controlled clinical study.

Background: This study aims to assess whether photodynamic therapy (PDT) offers a clinically effective alternative for treating oral aphthous ulcers, contributing to the ongoing quest for methods to expedite their treatment process amidst the limited understanding of their etiology.

Materials And Method: The study involved thirty volunteers with aphthous ulcers, split equally between a control group and a PDT group. Patients in the PDT group received laser treatment using Indocyanine green upon admission, while the control group received no intervention.

Higher Complications During the Waiting Period for Interval Cholecystectomy in Patients With Mild Biliary Pancreatitis.

Background: Although current guidelines recommend cholecystectomy during the same admission in patients with mild acute biliary pancreatitis (ABP), it involves a waiting list most of the time. We aimed to assess the risk of complications and determine predictors during the waiting period for cholecystectomy after the first episode of ABP.

Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted in patients with mild ABP.

Doxazosin and erlotinib have anticancer effects in the endometrial cancer cell and important roles in ERα and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways.

ERα and Wnt/β-catenin pathways are critical for the progression of most endometrial cancers. We aimed to investigate the cytotoxic and apoptotic effects of tamoxifen and quinazoline derivative drugs of doxazosin and erlotinib, and their roles in ERα and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways in human endometrial cancer RL 95-2 cell. 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay and xCELLigence systems were performed to evaluate cytotoxicity.
